My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 8, boncer34

That's going to put him a looooong way back.

**** it all.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

That's going to put him a looooong way back.

fu** it all.

Yep. Just being realistic, it’s one of those ones where you basically write his season off. He’ll need to do a mini pre season and get some match conditioning.

[TheGrizz]

I can't help but feel this is my fault

I certainly blame you.

 

[ghostdog]

Instant hamstring's gonna get you
Gonna knock you right on the leg
You better get yourself a doctor
Or pretty soon your season's dead

Damn Lore your title change keeps putting this song in my head, which I guess is not a bad thing.

The question is, will we all shine on?
And will Kyle's midfield mates just be happy watching the wheels, no longer on the ball?

 

[MiguelM]

8 to 10 weeks

 

[JT_the_Man]

This hurts.

 

[eth-dog]

Bugger.

 

[Mr Bultitude]

This season is no fun.

 

[ant555]

I certainly blame you.

Next pod cast should be interesting

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

Hmmm, looking outside it's overcast, no sun, no moon and no stars shining so it's not looking good.

 

[Lore]

External consultants and a few months... jeez. 8-10 weeks is 2-3 months, but the way they're talking it might as well be 7 or 8. Must've ripped it off the bone.

The news is worse for midfielder/forward Kyle Langford

, who’ll miss months of football after severely straining his hamstring while leading for a mark in the opening term.

Langford will proceed with an external consultation process to determine the most appropriate recovery route.

“‘Langers’ early on in the game had that significant hamstring strain,” Murphy said.

“That’ll hold him out for quite a while now and we’ll consult a few people on what we do here, but unfortunately we won’t see him for a few months now.”

Injury news: Snelling to miss again, Francis available

Who claimed him as 'their boy?' It's their fault.

citizen-erased ????

sorry all.

 

[TheUnicorn]

sorry all.

Martin kicked it to him, Maybe his 5 goals was just to hide the fact that he’s here to ruin us from west coast, why else would they pass on him

 

[brutus76]

Surely last season on the list

 

[Albertross]

Surely last season on the list

What now???? Not sure how you come to that conclusion.

 

[imp99]

8-10 pfft. With our track record on injuries i'd be stunned if he's not a double amputee in six and looking to one up Pistorius.

Except is Essington... he'd aim, fire, borderline faint at the splashback, and speed dial Wosher. "Please return, please, I need help in mastering the awesomeness of the supersoaker." Learnings have to start from somewhere, no?

Meh. F*** Brisbane

Llyod was fairly stuffed after his.

highly doubtful
i've been critical as anyone about his work in the middle but even if he gets overtaken/squeezed out of that role, he has plenty of value (more, imo) as a forward.
even if his injury problems persist, getting 10 games out of langford as a forward is better than a lot of the blokes we're carrying.

Why do ridiculous comments like this even get responses?

From the injury report video:

Langers is booked in for surgery this week. Location of the injury is the same as last year, so going down the surgical path this time.

Will have surgery this week and then build up from that and get a time frame once he gets back into the club.

Surgery this week - must’ve been pretty buggered to have over a week in the ice before he’s ready for surgery.

I did a calf that took over a week for the swelling to settle, and that didn’t entail surgery or a 3 month recovery window.

Can fully believe an injury bad enough to need surgery would take a long time to settle!

My poor boy
